1 Corinthians 13:1-13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.… Gifts — I. HAVE NO VALUE IN THEMSELVES; may occasion mischief; love is intrinsically excellent; gives value to everything. II. DO NOT NECESSARILY MAKE A MAN USEFUL; love makes him active and self-sacrificing. III. CANNOT SAVE; love is salvation already begun. (J. Lyth, D.D.) Parallel Verses KJV: Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. |
